1. Install from Web

If your website has "Install from Web" functionality enabled, go to Install from Web tab, then type "SendinBlue" in the search box. Click on the package title to open the listing, then click on the Install button. Once confirmed, the package will be automatically installed.

2. Upload Package File

Choose the latest version package and click on "Download link" to save the package to your computer.

When the download is finished, upload the file.

3. Install from folder

If you have downloaded the installation package into a specific folder on your server, you may use this installation option. Enter the file path for that specific folder, then click on the Check and install button. Joomla will automatically try to open the package and run the installation.

Hit the Save button at the top. You will then see data from your SendinBlue account on your Dashboard. If you do not see your data, it is likely that you are not using a valid API key.

Setting advanced options

We recommend leaving all advanced options at their default values. If you would like to edit the parameters of the component on a global level, click on the Options button at the top right on your Dashboard.

On this page, you'll be able to edit:

1. Global parameters

Base URL - this is the URL used for all API calls. It should be left at the default value.

Connection timeout (seconds) - if you have connectivity problems, try increasing this value.

2. Advanced parameters

Opt-in template link tag - this is the tag used in SendinBlue email templates

Double opt-in attribute name - the SendinBlue attribute name which will be used in the confirmation process

Opt-in link validity period (minutes) - the length of time a subscriber will have to confirm their subscription

Double opt-in temporary folder & double opt-in temporary list - used to temporarily store data about a subscriber until they confirm their subscription
